Tile repair in Carr Houses without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, in marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Landlord and trade work in Carr Houses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Carr Houses: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Sefton.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Carr Houses?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

When to call us in Carr Houses

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

10 questions to ask before booking

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Carr Houses. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Read our prices page.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Carr Houses. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
